Dr. Kontosis has a strong interest in diagnostic surgical pathology and is currently a Surgical Pathology Fellow at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

Why did you chose Mayo Clinic for your fellowship? I chose to pursue a second fellowship in Gynecologic Pathology at Mayo Clinic because of the exceptional breadth and diversity of cases, particularly the high volume of complex consult material. The opportunity to learn from outstanding mentors and nationally recognized leaders in the field has been invaluable to my professional growth. Additionally, the collegial and highly collaborative multidisciplinary environment fosters both diagnostic excellence and continuous learning. Together, these elements provide an ideal setting to further refine my subspecialty expertise.
